Finally got it working
There! I finally got my site redesigned, and I’m pretty happy with it. My only issue is that I can’t figure out how to make the sidebar (which I’ve placed at the bottom) display horizontally– if there’s any WordPress wizards out there who can help me, please let me know!
I also had to rebuild my ad boxes, so they should be going for even less than usual now. Bid away!
If you’re reading this on LiveJournal, you can see what I’m talking about here.
design critique:
Site looks good overall. The only thing that doesn’t work is the fact that your site name is very much less prominent than the ad banner on top. So much so, that for a moment, ‘evil space robot’ looked like the ad and I thought I’d ended up at ‘Retro Reviews’. The ads below your main navigation also takes visual precedence over your nav.
Perhaps making the type of your title at least as large as the ad and/or adding some kind of visual buffer between the ads and your title banner might work.
That’s all.
Arkon out.
Yeah, I agree. I have to fix that somehow.
Hope I didn’t sound to jerky. Your work’s too good to let even the littlest thing get in the way of its promotion.
No, not at all. I just replied shortly because I was headed out the door. I’m still trying to think of ways to fit the ads on without them looking too lousy. I’d just junk them, but they do pay for the hosting.
Hi man, just took a look at your CSS. Main problem you’ve got here is that your content (the blogpart) and your sidebar are about the same width and both positioned to the left (float: left). The sum of the widths has to be equal (or smaller) than the container of your site. That should fix the positioning.
you know what, forget that, I misunderstood what you were saying. If you want the sidebar content to be horizontal, the stuff inside (calendar and such) should be contained in divs, and those should be floated + have a fixed width.
